Learning Anywhere



One of the most wonderful things about homeschooling is the ability to pick up and go (or not go!) and be able to do your learning anywhere. This was a wonderful attribute when we were traveling with Daddy for work. Today we had breakfast and then started on our lessons, which we started in our Play Room but then moved outdoors to the deck to enjoy the fabulous sunshine and warmth. Here you see us enjoying a game of alphabet bingo. . .which was followed by some Math Brainteasers (sooo fun to watch them get hyped up and excited about their Math story problems!). They love their math! We followed this up with some yummy, fresh vegetables and some hummus and refueled for an afternoon of play and planting. We headed out to pick up some flowers and more potting soil for our deck baskets and decorative pots. It was so cute (and rewarding for me!) to listen to them talk about the growth process from the seedlings into the starter plants. . .and the discussion of whose would be the biggest and why! lol ;-) Then we just hung out and planted our flowers - we actually got them all planted so we're ready to start on the beds next!
